Seriously unless you are a complete moron you would have some idea what the car is worth, and if you don't how about do some research before selling it!
Perhaps with the recent death of his brother and large expenses that can entail, he has other issues to worry about at a time that he has more important things on his mind. I don't blame him and perhaps his call was in an indirect way market research and he was hoping the presented could help him out, which he did.

I absolutely think the presenter did the right thing.

As for those that complained, get over it. Even if they gave him $80k, they are still getting a bargain without totally ripping the poor guy off. I would go as far to say buying a car at 80% of its value is a bargain, 20% is plain unethical.
